That was one of the reasons that we did the surgery for both of our dogs at the same time. But for the first several days he will probably just want to rest and cuddle. That's how ours were.
Another thing that no one told us was that they didn't want to potty for the first day or two. Our boy wouldn't pee for almost 36 hours when we first brought him home. He seemed very uncomfortable trying to get in his usual pee positions. He did go eventually when he started feeling a bit better and he was fine after that but it was another thing that had us very worried. With the meds and fasting they didn't poop for a while either. So don't be surprised if your little guy is hesitant to potty. |
thanks for letting me know this, I would have worried. We have been lucky with our other yorkie that he hasnt had any problems with his knees. He worried all last night. He kept sniffing around the house and wouldnt let us pick him up. I felt bad for him.
